Fish and chip van for events in Gibraltar, cooked to order

Planning for dietary needs
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will be straight with you about what’s possible. To make it work smoothly:
- Tell us expected visitor numbers
- Ask traders for allergen information to display
- Set a time for helpers’ food
- Plan bins near food stalls
Crew food is served at the agreed time.
A spot near the entrance or main ring works well.

Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
Next to a volunteer barbecue, a van means volunteers can enjoy the day. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your event.

A closer look at the menu
Pie and chips
Pie and chips gives people a filling alternative to fish.
Cod and chips
Cod has big, soft white flakes and a mild flavour, and it is what most people in the south ask for. We batter it and fry it to order.
Planners, venues and businesses
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. The council or landowner will tell you what they need.
If you’re organising for someone else, such as a wedding planner, an office manager or a fête committee, we will work directly with you and the venue. It saves passing messages back and forth.

Is Gibraltar too small for a chip van?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

Yes. We’ll need a safe route onto the site away from children.

London and the South East: Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bucks, Oxfordshire and the Isle of Wight, including Gibraltar.
Do you bring everything you need?
We bring the van and everything we need to cook. You just need a suitable spot and permission.
What if the weather’s bad?
Rain does not stop the fryers: the cooking is inside the van. It is worth planning some cover for the queue.

How do you handle allergies?
Tell us about allergies when you book, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item.
